Guest beachlover Posted November 20, 2010 Posted November 20, 2010 Thanks for posting this. These scammers are absolute f*cksticks... I've seen just this sort of scene myself in Phuket, with the tourists pacing around worried sick and not knowing what to do. What a way to f*ck up the day of someone who's on holidays. It's pretty f*cked up how well integrated the jet ski business and police operations are. The jet ski operators can have the police confiscate your passport and the police will pretty much always side with the scammers unless they are forced to do otherwise. The scammers have the police at their beck and call. It seems the big fuss kicked up about jet ski scams in Phuket last year didn't changed anything at all... "JJ Naiman", the jet ski rental thug who was filmed threatening Royal Marines on leave in Phuket last year is back at it again. This time he was photographed extorting cash from a group of young Malaysian tourists (some cute shirtless Malaysian boys in the photos here): http://www.andrew-drummond.com/2010/10/12/phuket-jet-ski-frauds-the-real-truth/ See what they did to ruin one family's holiday. Go to page 21 of this newspaper: http://phuketgazette.net/digitalgazette3/Aug15_09.pdf?thequerytype=&id=76259&Cat=34 Fortunately, in this case, the family hired a good lawyer who demolished the scammer's case in front of the police and even the police eventually had to begrudgingly concede the scammers were in the wrong and let the family go.
